New ADVANCE Pathways Available for 2020-2021

The 2020-2021 ADVANCE transfer pathways are now available on the ADVANCE website. As a reminder, ADVANCE is a transfer partnership between NOVA and George Mason University with defined curricular pathways in almost 100 majors with targeted, personalized support for students to complete their bachelor’s degrees in a timely manner.

In addition to the pathways that were available last year, we have added six new pathways, including the following:

• A.A. Liberal Arts: English Specialization to B.A. English
• A.A. Liberal Arts: English Specialization to B.F.A. Creative Writing
• A.S. Computer Science to B.S. Computer Science
• A.S. Information Technology to B.S. Information Technology
• A.A.S. Information Systems Technology: Cloud Computing Specialization to B.A.S. Applied Sciences – Cloud Computing Concentration
• A.S. Science to B.S. Atmospheric Sciences.

Two pathways were discontinued: B.A.S. in Legal Studies and B.A.S. in Human Development & Family Science (note: the B.A. in Human Development & Family Science remains a pathway).

We are currently reviewing ADVANCE applications for fall 2020. The priority deadline for fall 2020 is July 15. See eligibility criteria Here.

If faculty or staff have any questions about these updates or other questions about ADVANCE, please email academics@nvcc.edu. If your students have any questions, they can contact ADVANCE admissions via at advance@nvcc.edu.
